Thanks for the info & tips.
I'm undecided between selling them 'as is' as a sort of restoration project so the buyer can have them done the way they like & going full bore on the restoration & selling them as a finished item.
TBH I'm leaning towards an 'as is' sale because if I was buying them I'd want to have the work done by someone I know & trust & also because it looks like a pretty big job.
As we know American tastes can be more flamboyant than is the norm here so who knows, someone might want them in gold or red or chrome or some other finish that isn't the way I've done them & they'd just have to do it, at least partially, again.
